You ever have a hangover that’s more wild than the night out? Oh man, I just had one of those. I knew it was wild when I got up and did one of those classic, dehydrated hangover pisses. You know what I’m talking about, it’s a yellow, thick, viscous syrup. It collects at the bottom […]
A little while ago I watched this movie called Colette. It stars Keira Knightly as the titular Colette, author of the Claudine book series, and focuses on how she had to fight to get recognised as a writer because the books were originally published under her husband’s name.
